That's pretty harsh. Personally I really liked Solo. It's certainly no Rogue One, but it's better than all of the shitty numbered movies made since the 80s, none of which I have the slightest desire to ever watch again. And as I've said before, I felt it came the closest to capturing the fun, swashbuckling style of the original '77 Star Wars.
